Father Alex Ried (one of the two Clergymen who wittnessed the recent IRA decomissioning) angered Unuionists during a heated public debate in south Belfast when he drew parallells between the Unuionist treatment of nationalists and the treatment of The Jews by Nazis during the second World War.

Fr Ried made the comments when his integrity as a wittness was questioned by certin members of the audience. He stated:

: "The reality is that the nationalist community in Northern Ireland were treated almost like animals by the unionist community. They were not treated like human beings. It was like the Nazis treatment of the Jews."

At a public meeting in Co Cork, a parent in the audience inadvertently used the expression ‘his SNA’ in referring to her son’s Special Needs Assistant while asking a question of one of the speakers. It was an incidental thing in terms of the woman's question but it was interpreted as its central point by the CEO of the National Council for Special Education, Mr Pat Curtain, who was there to tell about all the progress being made by the NCSE in implementing the Education of Persons with Special Needs Act 2004. read full story / add a comment

The Industrial Relations debate in Australia is noted by the lack of involvement of those most affected – the entire working population of the nation! We witness various politicians, churchmen, union officials arguing the issues but we do not witness a mobilisation of the workforce ending the argument one way or the other. It is the workforce that must determine its own course or be led by slimy politicians and corporate bosses. read full story / add a comment

international / crime and justice / news report Wednesday October 12, 2005 14:32 by -
Some 45 police and medical staff are going on trial today accused of mistreating protesters that had been arrested and held at a camp near Genoa.
this is the "Bolzaneto torture trial".

On Friday, 28 officers will appear in court over a raid at a school which protesters were using as a dormitory.

this is the follow up to the beginning of the court proceedings on April 6th 2005 which saw police first testify on May 4th
http://www.indymedia.ie/newswire.php?story_id=69680

These cases focus more on the Diaz school incidents than Guiliani, but the whole thing comes together and indeed all these investigations and trials are concurrent now which heightens their contemporary political effect.

Today thus marks "the next stage". read full story / add a comment
